Triple action Dubai style

Hello again!  Sometimes the world takes us away for a while and eventually we find our way back.  So it did with me after I got back from 2 weeks in Dubai and returned home to a new job and a cross country move staring me down.  Packing up everything there was to pack and giving more to Goodwill than I ever have, we traveled the 2,000 miles across the country to a little village just outside of Boston, MA called Newton.  As we settle in and attempt to get a handle on life back in New England, mail starts to trickle in from being sent across the country now twice.

As I started to flip through the magazines I saw that the Dubai shots I took were quite well received and I feel some recent publications are worthy of a post such as this.

First up, the cover shot of 90 Percent:

Next up was a matching cover shot from the March, 2013 issue of Parachutist!

And then I opened up the latest issue of Blue Skies Mag and I see an amazing centerfold!

The 2013 season is shaping up and I’m excited to see what shots I’m able to capture this year as the skill levels of the jumpers increase, so does what they are capable of doing in the sky.  I just hope I’m there at the right moment to grab a frame of their magic.  Thank you for letting me be a part of it!

Taking it to the next level with Parachutist

Parachutist Magazine has been doing a great job of keeping up to date with not just the sport, but magazine publishing in general.  Not only do they have a new look and feel with a bound magazine, but the type of paper adds to the entire experience.  So when they approached me about doing a special project with my sponsors, I jumped on the opportunity.  Their proposal was to put a removable poster into every magazine for their October issue.  This double sided, double folded poster would open up to about 2 feet wide and would truly give the person looking at it great appreciation of the most recent 138-Way Vertical World Record.  I just got my October issue in the mail and I have to say it was worth all of the work to make it happen!

Thank you everyone at USPA / Parachutist for thinking outside of the box and allowing us to deliver a high quality shot of the new World Record to everyone’s door.  And Kudos to Norman Kent for a phenomenal cover shot!
